Christian fiction romance set in the west. Not sure but I'd guess around mid 1800's. Woman is held hostage in a camp of bandits and of course falls in love with one and vice versa! I like the twist in this story and how it unravels but don't think it's one I'd read again.

This is a very good book. The characters are interesting and the story just pulls you in. I started reading Janette Oke's books when I was about 13 and this is one that I just read over and over. Great for young teens all the way through adulthood.

This book was another really good one by Janette Oke. Ariana is kidnapped by a band of outlaws for no apparent reason (although reader has witnessed the leader having a conversation about it, so we know why). The son of the leader is assigned to taking care of the captive, and she shows him that there is more to the Bible than just being a normal book. He looks into it more, and realizes he'll have to help her escape. It's a really good story.

I am grateful that God kept nudging me to give Janette Oke's books one more chance. I had read all but two of the Women of the West books about ten years ago, but when I re-read the first two books last year, I found myself disappointed: The books were not just simple and sweet, but simplistic and saccharine. This book, on the other hand, was grittier and more real; the characters actually struggle with God's plans for their lives, as do most of us here in the real world. I did have a question or two about Oke's definition of pemmican (I think she meant jerky) and her use of outlandish dialects for the outlaws and the Native Americans, but the book was still satisfying, at least spiritually.

This story is a wonderful example of God's sovereignty and His ability to look after His own. The turns that the story takes holds your attention, and the undertone of faith can encourage readers both young and old. I've read the book several times and have enjoyed it every single time.

My first time reading one of Janette Oke's books. Not a book with lots of suspense that drives you crazy but a nice little mystery that keeps you interested. The title was a mystery to me until halfway through the book; just didn't register. Guess I'm a little slow. Good book.
